Moderator's Review:

his left thigh is not that nicely rigged, and it distorts in the anims, same as his right shoulder.. but be sure to check the other parts too.
I'm also not sure if war3 even recognizes the word 'meat', maybe 'flesh' would be a better idea.. or 'gold' i dunno... speakin' of meat, that big piece is a lill bit too jiggly and could use being a lot more rigid. it also could use a bone at the place he is holding it. top of your cleaver could be lill better wrapped, maybe?

MiniMage: I can't see that much issues with the model besides the lumber animations. The arm is looking a little derpy, please fix that asap.

MiniMage: The arm still needs work in the lumber animations.

interesting

 

[kellym0]

he looks quite neat, I like it.
7/10 the weapon looks nice but the models feet look kinda off, too thin? not sure, its as though the ankle doesn't exist. but that's probably the screen shot's angle's fault.

 

[Cokemonkey11]

It's a really nice, useful concept, but the animations are pretty strange. He has bad walking gait and his arms/feet look out of place in his attack animation - arguably the two most important animations for a worker

 

[Skipper]

It´s very cool, edited animations, pretty cool model edit. But look on it´s ass during attack - 2 ...

4/5 - Recommended

 

[NhazUl]

Nice hairdo, refreshing to see one among all the troll mohawks. Also, does the Meat animation tag actually work?

 

[Midasowski]

Nice Animations ^^

No, it's unfortunately true. The skeleton of the model (incl. anims) were a bit badly chosen. I'll remake the model with the peasant's anims & skeleton.

Ty same as above.

Thx the entire model will be fixed soon.

hehe, ty It will need some help from triggers, otherwise it might work when the Troll is mining.

Nice Animations ^^

thx, although after a second look i must say, they're quite lacking....especially attack 2 is creepy.

Really good one, although the hair kinda fits the Forsaken more.

it's a unirace haircut. If you're familiar with Lord of the Rings, the Corsairs of Umbar had similar ones. Although yes, now that you say it, it reminds me too of Forsaken.

I'd like the meat!
And the lumber, gold!
Of course the model itself I like!
It's a "brand new" troll.

hehe, thx Well, my idea while making it was: "There are already Troll Models that gather gold and lumber, so let's better give the Troll race a model like the Ghoul for the Undead: combat and lumbering unit." First, i wanted to give him an axe, coz it fits more as a lumbering tool, but then i reconsidered it. I just though it would be pitty if the gold anims are deleted, so i added him a machette (koukri) and replaced the gold with a bunch of raw meat wrapped in some skin/fur. I saw a map on the Hive where units costed food like in Age of Empires, so i thought this Troll would be a nice model for such economy systems.

 

[Randomall]

Nice model

[Splub]

I love it! The hair is great!

hehe, thx I wanted to make some variation between the trolls, so i made this custom hairstyle. Though, i think it would also fit to undead, forsaken in particular.

Excellent forest troll worker.

you could always compensate like I did and use attachment art instead, delete his weapon, so he slaps with nothing, then some trolls could have axes and some could have machetes. or other things even. the idea was to eliminate uniformity which worked for me.

a thought any way lol

yeah, i agree with that. Uniformity is IMO partialy the key to boredom, sometimes.

Hey, will you fix this model any time soon, because I think this is in fact a useful addition to the databse.

Hi! Thx for your feedback! Yup, i'm actually planning to make a big fix/improvement at this and maybe a few others of my previous models, plus maybe making a few new ones during Xmas.
